So how about he cuts reddits 2000 employees down to something reasonable so they don't have so much on their payroll then? Like how the hell do they need 2000 employees when volunteers do everything. They were literally at 600 just two years ago.

They did just do a round of layoffs recently that dropped something like 5% of their staff. I won't be at all surprised if that ends up just being round 1.
